Georgia Confidential

Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and Stonewall Jackson are memorialized at

Stone Mountain, Georgia, on the largest bas relief in the world.

We basically drove almost straight through Georgia, but we did stop long enough (less than 30 minutes) to see Stone Mountain. Carved by the same man who carved Mount Rushmore, Stone Mountain is the largest bas relief in the world and pays homage to Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and Stonewall Jackson--the Confederate States of America's most loved leaders.
